Things is, Bart is FROM the future. So relatively speaking he didn't visit the future per se, rather he's currently living in the past. So shouldn't his entire memory of his childhood have faded by now?

I'm guessing that all the future knowledge he has from the Impulse series was from when the timeline was a bit more, ah, "stable" in comparison to its state now, what with Professor Zoom using it as a cosmic playground for himself and his family.

Yeah, this kind of directly contradicts everything that's been established about how Bart's mind works, doesn't it? I remember when Linda was abducted by Abra Kadabra and hidden outside the time stream; Bart was the only one to remember her explicitly because he was from the future.

Um, the future he visited is going to be retconned away soon and the only record of it will be whatever he wrote down?

(And geeze, Bart, why not look into sports scores? A bit of careful non-excessive betting could give the team plenty of operating funds without disrupting the timestream. Unlike, oh, creating transparent aluminum a few decades early. Or inventing a teleporter for Lexcorp to take apart and weaponize. Sports scores are, as these things go, non-disruptive future info.)

I'll admit my recollections of Bart's origins are a bit sketchy, but wasn't he pretty much raised in VR so he wouldn't go crazy with the whole "accelerated ageing" thing? So then I would assume that during that time, Meloni decided that teaching Bart the finer aspects of time travel & other futurescience as opposed to, how to try to interact with people.

Besides, hasn't it been canon that when most people travel to the 31st century via time-travel, they get a minor memory wipe to prevent any screwing with the timestream? I'd be more suprised that Bart managed to hold on to this info for so long after Saturn Girl would supposedly wipe it from him.

On another note, I adore Cassie forever and ever, loved her in this issue, and kind of reaaaaally hope she finds someone better than Kon :DDDDD which shouldn't be too hard with the way that Kon has been written as a boyfriend, but hey. (Or, you know, they could just have stunningly beautiful and mature scenes and work it out, but that might be too much to ask from DC)

I like Cassie and Kon but when it sounded like they were splitting up I was all "8D nodramaplease nodramaplease nodramaplease <3" I liked how Kon is being written though, with Cassie, I thought it was cute and made me laugh but I think it seemed more Friendship-y then boyfriend and girlfriend-y.

Well, the future where both Bart and Kon came back from was during Legion of Three Worlds, so I guess you could say, since it was around Final Crisis, a lot of alternate universes were being smashed together.

As for Bart calling his home time-line "the future"--he's lived in this timeline for a long time, and has plans on staying there, This timeline would be his home and, therefore, his present.

This would actually make sense if Brainy was like "Oh crap, he's going to throw off the entire space-time continuum if he does this... *sigh* I guess I'll have to find a way to keep him from remembering too many details he shouldn't." More than him just randomly forgetting things that continuity has indicated he shouldn't randomly forget.

So when are Kon and Rose going to found the "Heroic Kids of Evil Dads" club? Cass Cain and Megan can join too!

Deathstroke helped nuke Bludhaven and killed millions of people. Luthor blew up a planet, though oddly enough killed fewer than Deathstroke. (At least, at that time. I'm sure you can point to plenty of other incidents that would increase his bodycount.)

My "everyone in Teen Titans is a secret evil clone while the actual cast of Young Justice is hanging out on Awesome Adventure Island with the real Cassandra Cain" theory is only helped by Bart's inexplicably red hair.
